Testimonials

I just wanted to say a huge thank you to you for all your help, patience and understanding this year and we can’t wait to be there in 2023.

Many thanks - and thanks as always to your staff team who were as ever very efficient, supportive and friendly this year at Festival.

Hope you are well and that things are starting to settle after the Fringe. I just wanted to thank you and all at theSpaceUK for an amazing time. The young cast and crew of ‘Glister’ had a blast for the 20 year anniversary of the youth theatre group .This methodology is as powerful now as it was in 2002. They got to see some fantastic shows as a result of theSpaceUK reciprocal scheme and met some brilliant people. I feel that EdFringe 2022 overall was a great success and that theSpaceUK and its ethos played a large part in that.

What a fantastic experience to perform at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. You and your team were superb - especially Meera and her tech staff. I very much want to return to Edinburgh next summer and I want to perform more performances. I'm amazed how much audience I was building in my short run, and I did receive a rave review. There is so much I figured out and learned this outing. Please let me know when I should apply for next year.

I just wanted to say how very impressed we are with theSpace at Surgeons Hall. The whole team we have met, from Wayne (top bloke) to Lou and Nic in the Press Office, the box office and all at the FOH start at Venue 38, they have all been off the highest quality, really nice, helpful and clearly very well trained. It's been an absolute pleasure and I would have no hesitation in using theSpace again. Absolutely brilliant company.

A huge thank you for hosting MATES: The Improvised ‘90s Sitcom and Sex, Lies & Improvisation. As always, you were a joy to work with, always professional and friendly.

I wanted to write to you and thank you so hugely much for everything. Thanks to you we just took part in our very first Edinburgh Fringe! From the first phone call with you earlier this year when it felt such a huge leap into the unknown, and right the way through, you and theSpaceUK team have been so wonderful, and guided us every step of the way. It was such a huge learning experience on every level and from the beginning you were amazing - pointing us towards the perfect venue and making it all seem possible. Which it was! And even though we only had six shows we ended up with lovely audiences and two wonderful reviews and a Carol Tambor award - on top of our stated goal which was to have the chance to discover and explore the show that we had made.o we are very happy and proud of the work, and thrilled to have been a part of it all. You and the whole SpaceUK team are wonderful and we cannot thank you enough.

I have done six shows over the years in theSpaceUK venues, and would use them again for future fringe appearances. The setup is very friendly and well organised, and there are many long-term members of the team who are extremely helpful, cheerful and competent. For stand-up comedy, the sound quality has been excellent in both of the venues I have used. Shows run to time, there is a great collegiate sense of support from other acts, and the publicity team and box office are very helpful. The venues are reasonably priced compared to others, and symposium hall particularly is the most comfortable venue in Edinburgh, with blue leather seats. Finally, I’m very impressed with Charles‘ leadership; he takes time to connect and make sure everything is going well. And there is always a fabulous party at the end of the run!”

Just a quick note to say thanks for another great Fringe at theSpaceUK. It’s really wonderful to have venues like theSpaceUK where new writing and things other than stand up are well received! Thanks also to the staff in all areas this year. From my point of view everything ran super smoothly, and - especially compared to other fringe venues - the support you offer both before and during the run in terms of press, advertising offers, tech support and so forth is fantastic.

theSpaceUK have always been brave in their choice of artists and theatre companies. This year their brevity was shown in their positive attitude and unmatched organisation skills during a very difficult period. Artistes and audiences alike were made to feel safe and comfortable in four magnificent venues resulting in a wonderful Fringe experience. Thank you and see you in 2022.
